cataloging analyzer memory
l recalling a test plan from a RAM card
l recalling test data from the RAM card

l formatting a RAM card
l deleting all the

from a RAM card
l deleting individual Eles from a RAM card
The following tests can be performed in SYSTEM
MEAS
mode:
0
visual/aural carrier levels
0
visual/aural carrier frequencies
l depth of modulation

0
carrier-to-noise ratio
l DG, DP,
CLDIt
*
l in-channel frequency
responset
*
l FM deviation
If a test fails in the SYSTEM
MEAS
mode, confirm the failure using
CHANNEL
MEAS
mode. This may involve disabling carriers or modulation
according to FCC rules. Relative measurements showing cable TV equipment
contributions may also be helpful in meeting FCC requirements.

Cannot perform on scrambled channels.
